As PHP converts strings that begin with numbers into numbers when using checkdate, it may be useful to check if numbers are being used. For example: checkdate('12','3 little pigs','2003') will validate, even though you probably don't want it to. To avoid this problem, use: is_numeric($day) && is_numeric($mon) && is_numeric($year) && checkdate( $mon, $day, $year ) -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.checkdate.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+28260 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+28260 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+28260
